    The fields for a WebLogic, WebSphere, and Apache Web server are auto-detected and populated when you select one of the auto-discovered Web sites in the Detected Web sites list.
    The following information appears:
    • Apache. The full path of the configuration file.

      Info

      The auto-detection mechanism is limited in different ways, depending on whether Apache is on a Windows or UNIX server. On Windows, the detection is based on the services list. Therefore, Apache will not be detected if it is not defined as a service. On UNIX, the detection is based on running processes. The Web server version is not detected if the Precise user does not have execute permission on the Apache executable (HTTPD).

  2. Enter the Web site configuration file. To browse for the appropriate folder and file, click the browse (...) button.
    This input is required for Apache and Sun iPlanet. For all other web servers, it is recommended to manually enter the value to optimize the installation process. If however, the value is unavailable, the field can be left blank.
    The following values are auto-detected:
    • Apache. The full path and name of the main configuration file. For example:
      C:\WebServers\Apache\Apache13\conf\httpd.conf
      For Apache that serves Oracle applications:
      /rac_shared/env/appl/apps/tech_st/10.1.3/Apache/Apache/conf/httpd.conf
      or
      /rac_shared/env/inst/apps/VIS_pool-linux-rac-1/ora/10.1.3/Apache/Apache/conf/htt pd.conf)
    • Sun One or Sun iPlanet. The full path to the server.xml file of a specific server on a specific node in a specific cell. For example: c:\WebServers\Sun\WebServer6.1\https-admserv\config\server.xml.
    • Tomcat. The full path to the server.xml file. For example: c:\WebServers\Tomcat\conf\server.xml.

      Info

      If the auto-detected value is incorrect, you can change it manually.
